Carpenter Brooklyn M23 Field Watch

When it comes to watches, it’s always heartening to see small, independent brands holding their own in what is a highly competitive industry and there are some who we’ve always got a soft spot for here at Coolector HQ – with New York based, Carpenter Watches, being chief amongst them. Their latest timepiece release, the M23 Field Watch, is undoubtedly one of their most technically accomplished and aesthetically superior to date and if you’re after something to accompany your adventures in 2022, this would be a top pick of ours.

The Carpenter Brooklyn M23 Field Watch has an entirely reasonable price tag of $625 and, considering this will be on your wrist for under $1k, it’s hard to believe just how impressive its feature and craftsmanship are. The quality is plain to see right from the get-go and if, like us, you love muted, minimalist style timepieces, the M23 is definitely going to be right up your street. Available in three different strap colourways – Black, Navy and Brown – the devilishly dapper nature of this watch ensures it wouldn’t look out of place on Don Draper’s wrist.

FIT FOR ADVENTURE

Built for adventure, the Brooklyn M23 Field Watch from Carpenter Watches is a limited edition release with only 200 being made available to buy so you better move quickly because this one is bound to fly off their digital shelves at a rapid rate of knots. This classy looking timepiece focuses on style and it is dripping with old school cool but has an adventure-ready performance that won’t let you down when push comes to shove out in the real world. This brilliant M23 Field Watch provides a reliable and accurate performance courtesy of its MIYOTA 821A 21 jewel automatic movement.

The Carpenter M23 Field Watch ($625) is classy and well-made and it’s easy to see why they’re selling out rapidly because the value for money is mighty impressive as well and you’re getting an awfully accomplished timepiece for the price. Carpenter Watches boast a small but perfectly formed curation of high-quality timepieces and this latest addition to the lineup is one of our favourites to date and for any man who wants a watch that knows it doesn’t need to be ostentatious in order to stand out, this will unquestionably tick all of the right boxes.

There are plenty of eye-catching features to appreciate with the M23 from Carpenter which includes a 5ATM water resistance, suitable for adventures in the deep blue sea, double domed, sapphire crystal glass casing, a genuine, tapered leather strap (in three different colours), date complication and a 40mm, 316L stainless steel case with a sapphire exhibition casebook. Love well-made, stylish and, above all, affordable watches? Us too – so let’s both appreciate the quality M23 Field Watch from Carpenter Watches. Head on over to bag this limited edition release before it is too late.
